To require the Secretary of Health and Human Services to conduct a study on pharmacy benefit manager audit practices.
HR 10050 requires the Health and Human Services Secretary to study pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) audit practices within one year of enactment. The study will assess financial impacts on independent pharmacies, evaluate if audit deadlines align with medication shelf lives (including FDA-approved 2+ year shelf lives), and examine audit transparency. It will also identify fairer audit processes to reduce burdens on pharmacists while maintaining audit integrity. The report must cover audits for Medicare, Medicaid, and insurance plans, including recommendations for transparency improvements.
